  5. This isn’t new, if anything they introduced these tactics to the region. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionist_political_violence#Irgun,_Haganah_and_Lehi_attackshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionist_political_violence#Irgun,_Haganah_and_Lehi_attacks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Israeli_assassinations
  6. I think everyone is going to search every device with extreme paranoia now, so probably won’t happen, at least until someone figures out how to make tech blow up without any visibly detectable explosives that can’t be searched for easily.
  7. Put that aside, this very possibly could cause a full scale war, which even if Israel wins means many Israelis being killed or injured. Why do that when Israel could just accept the Gaza ceasefire, as both the houthis and hezbollah said they’ll stop firing if that happens. Clearly everyone would better off than trading bombs and missiles, surgical or not. Also I haven’t seen solid proof it is as surgical as people are claiming. For one hezbollah isn’t just a military, it is a political party and has many other aspects of infrastructure, many of the pagers could be held by non combatants, also there were reports of cars and solar panels blowing up as well.

  10. It doesn’t say she is the only death. She is the first, her family announced it shortly before hezbollah confirmed other deaths.
  11. How is that not true? The article says the girl was killed.

  16. Beating Trump is also a low bar yet Democrats are one for two on it and potentially about to be one to three

  20. The point of the free press is to provide a critique of the powerful to create a balance in society. If the powerful have control over it they can now set a narrative that is good for their own goals but not necessarily for the wider public, which can lead that backlash. There are many examples in just recent history for how disastrous this is. If the media was more critical of Bill Clinton and Obama’s trade deals, they could perhaps push them to reform them in a way that was less harmful to manufacturing. A major reason trump won was because of dissatisfied voters who had lost their jobs due to these deals. If the media was more critical of Obama’s Syria policy, they could have perhaps stopped him from funding rebels in Syria, that would have reduced the amount of Syrian refugees, the large amount of them was a major cause of the rise of the far right in Europe. The issue is assuming when Cenk or the left disagrees with the moderates it’s because they are wild eyed leftists and the moderates are realistic, that can be the case, but sometimes it isn’t and they are actually right. If you ask Cenk what his biggest policies would be, aside from Israel which is controversial, he would say ban money from politics and Medicare for all. To dismiss this as unrealistic leftism because the moderate dems don’t do it is wrong, as we have polling data finding they poll at 90-70% support respectively with the wider public. This indicates that if the moderate dems and their outlets aren’t pushing for it, it’s not actually for a practical electoral reason. I’d actually argue that moderate democrats are more willing to push the aspects of leftist beliefs that are more controversial with the wider public, such as aspects of lgbtq rights, DEI, and aspects of modern feminism. The reason is clearly less what gets votes and more what lobbies want and don’t want.
  21. Except if the democrats had a primary and people saw Biden’s age he would have been pressured out much earlier. You yourself were defending the democrats not holding a primary earlier. It still took a while to shove him out partly because many kept defending him. The only reason he got out was because Trump inexplicably agreed to a early debate. If that hasn’t happened we’d be having the debate reveal this month, and it would be too late for him to get out, and trump would win in a landslide. Listening to the moderate dems over the “crazy leftist” was literally a centimeter away from pushing everyone off a cliff, we just got lucky.
